It's a lot to digest, big lists and could take a month or two to understand all of it.

Lists of Export Controlled Items, Information and Software
Introduction
In considering whether or not a shipment to another country will require an export license, we need to consider both WHAT is being shipped and WHERE it is going.
The lists on this page deal with WHAT is being shipped. (See the lists of export controlled or embargoed countries for guidance about WHERE certain shipments may be sent.)
Items, Information and Software subject to US Export Control Laws and used in a university environment are generally categorized on the following two lists:
US Munitions List (USML) – (ITAR)
Commerce Control List (CCL) – (EAR)
In addition, under the provisions of the international Chemical Weapons Convention, the United States may require special declarations related to chemical shipments under either the ITAR or the EAR.
If you are shipping any equipment, software, biological agents or technology internationally, please complete the Export Control Determination Request to assist in the classification of the item and to confirm that the ultimate recipient is not a prohibited party. When in doubt of whether a determination is necessary, contact
export_controls@ncsu.edu.
